“…Another taxonomic revision performed by Lüking et al (1999) studied '2,800 specimens identified by Batista and his group, belonging to 37 genera and 134 species of foliicolous lichens and/or lichenicolous fungi'. The most part of these materials were collected in the Amazon region in Brazil, totalizing about 9,000 collections, 18,000 specimens and 250 names belonging to 38 genera and 68 new species (Silva & Minter 1995, Lücking et al 1998, 1999. inct.florabrasil.net/participantes/herbarios-curadores/urm/) has a collection of more than 80,000 fungal records and 46,000 exsiccates, and it is considered one of the largest collections of fungi in Latin America.…”
